Swapping accidental tomestone gear purchases

[SnowVix]

So long it's not bound then some sort of grace period for trading back in would be appreciated. I'm sure we've all wasted some tomes at some point.

i feel like this is part of why the Shire set was the last tome set we got with fanciful names instead of "Of Fending/Maiming/Striking/Scouting/Aiming/Casting/Healing"

+1 to the idea, though, because had a friend accidentally buy for their old class after swapping to a new one for the next tier

LOL yeah the fancy names were fun but it could be difficult to keep them straight.

Its funny because they already have a return system in the game but it just doesnt work on tombstone gear. For a game that touts not having FOMO as a major element they sure do have some annoying systems that make players who care about getting certain things log in and keep their sub going arbitrarily.

I'm not saying that it can't or shouldn't be reversible, I'm just suggesting an additional method of avoiding the mistake in the first place.

It's called "paying attention". They aren't at fault because you could take the extra time to ensure you got the right gear piece.

When I go for any currency gear, I take the time to make sure it's the right piece by knowing the set and double checking the pop-up box that tells you info such as what jobs it's for.

Aaaaaand there it is, there's always at least one person like this that defends bad systems, good job here's a cookie SE still don't care about you.

OP is asking a QoL featture that would benefit EVERYONE there should not be one person having an issue with this and instead supporting it.

I agree that people should pay attention, but what harm would it be to have a refund system in place?

Since the game has launched I can't remember a single time where I mis-purchased an item because I DO pay attention. It's certainly possible and within the players' control to avoid this issue. That doesn't mean I have to disagree with a simple QoL change to have items be temporarily refundable.

In my original response, I just gave a solution to help avoid making a wrong purchase, because somehow there are players who haven't noticed that there even IS a job filter on the menu.

I will keep an eye out for this as I havent noticed it either and im a legacy player who only plays off and on so I don't know everything but this game certainly needs a lot of QoL improvements from buying/selling/glamour to inventory management, and nobody should be against systems being put in place to make things abit more informative/easier to use.

Why should the devs implement a system for people who couldn't spend a few extra seconds to pay attention? I've made the same mistake and you know what I did? I learned from my mistake. I got the currency back and got the proper piece I needed.

I didn't take to some forum to whine about my mess up. Takes but a moment to read not only the name of the item but read its tooltip where it legit tells you what jobs it's for.

I don't see any coherent arguments as to why this would be viable at all. I need to know any mmo this is implemented in that's a mainstream one. I don't even think WoW has this at all either.

Also I'm laughing a bit because I realized a small correlation between not being able to pay attention to a simple gear purchase and paying attention during content runs to mechanics.

That is farfetched but amusing to think about.

It's easy to use now. How much more hyper casual do you folks want this game? Need them to hold your hands too while you do a savage run?
